Dare I ask for a ballpark figure? teehee.gif

Well, my panel guy was able to buff out the scratch (about 4 inches long, half an inch wide) as Mr Stupidhead folded my mirror back with his own mirror whilst he was driving like a Polish housemaid.

So, labour to remove; (min 1/2 hour)$50, paint correction; (min 1/2 hour+polish)$60, insurance excess; $500.

Total cost for not being able to drive your car in a straight line (and then acting like a prick); $610!

If he'd even attempted to apologise, or not carried on like a prize f##kwit; I would have removed it myself, and had my panel guy do it for nothing...

But NOOOOOOOOOO!

WTF kind of name is symond lol, suck to be him what a knob!

Could not agree more!:cheers: Although if you could've seen his wife; you'd be angry too, if you had to inseminate that :blink: !

He and his shrill loungechair missus are in for a surprise, especially after their categorical refusal to pay for any damage to my car.

Wrong again!

Hahaha what's wrong with people these days, everyone drIves around like their at war with other normal road users

Thing is this, guy possibly (not really) didn't see me to begin with, however, as my mirror was level with his mirror, he would had to have seen me at some point. He just decided to be a bully.

He actually said to me "All you had to do was get on the brakes and I could've got in":rolleyes: So now his problem becomes my problem; I don't think so.

In his mind, it was as if it was a gentle merge; not a full blooded swerve into my lane.

I simply replied "All YOU had to do was get on the brakes and YOU could've got in behind ME. But you're a bully, aren't you?" (this rather pissed him off, lol) and "The other thing you could've done was STAY IN YOUR LANE! Straight ahead was one of several options open to you." That, and a bit of "Well, why don't we call the Police and see what they think?" (This was when the loungechair started screehing):blink:

And all of this at 7am, the road wasn't even busy...

If I have to MAKE a gap for your car; that is the ENTIRE size of you car, there ISN'T a gap to put your car in.pinch.gif How f##king hard is it?

lol....at least you now know why I like the AR-X bump skirt's.....I am quite prepared to use em too! Apparently they work very wellwhistling.gif.

I know I'm going to get caught with this eventually but I have found a slow creep over to the side of your lane doesn't work nearly as good as a brisk throw of the car to the side of the lane!....all still very legal as you have not left your lane!

Lol dude, VERY tempting sometimes...

I'm so paranoid about it at the moment, both my missus car & the Stag seem to have targets painted on them at the moment, her car goes next week for $6000 worth of hail dent removal (the third big repair in less than 2 years; none at fault) my missus was put in hospital for nearly a week by a f##king red light running pensioner last year.

I've just had a gutful of ppl using our cars as brakes...

This just in; got my first irate phone call from my mate :banana: . Apparently imports ARE expensive to repair. After an extensive chat; I politely asked that he refer any further correspondence to Shannons.

He then (stupidly) asked "Why? What are you gonna do if I don't?"

Guess whos getting 10 pizza's tonight?

At 11pm...:ph34r:

And every night this week.

GAME ON, SYMOND.

    • R34DE as in R34 with an RB25DE? So did you get this? Or you planning to?  I'm not really sure what you're saying. 
    • Possibly avoid using a Cometic one unless the deck/head surface are perfectly flat. I did have a look just then and forgiving gaskets such as Tomei or Nitto don't exist for the FJ20, however the Bar-Tek or Kameari ones look good and might do the trick.
    • Because pipe threads for pipe things. M threads for bolt things. Throw some teflon sealant onto it and dust your hands off knowing you did the right thing, instead of going twice around the block to achieve a result using the wrong things. Of course, all of these solutions are ignoring the fact that the minimum thread pitch we're talking about here is 1.25mm, with the 1/4" in NPT or BPS being out around 1.4mm. You will need to know that the boss you're tapping has enough thickness for at least a few threads. That's one of the reasons that 1/8" is commonly used - because the pitch is <1mm. And why would you look to use 1/4" NPT in a BSP country anyway? Ugh.
    • Just throwing around ideas, does it need to be in the compressor cover? Why not the hot side piping?
    • 1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)
